Yes!! Mom, Dad, Wanda and Tori came for a 10 day visit this month!! Here they are as I found them when I got to the airport. Do you think they brought enough bags? most of them were for me!!:) I made the limo sign but they were already out when I got there.
We did a lot of traveling while they were here-on Sunday we went to Amsterdam to see Anne Frank's house, the canals and I think their favorite thing was the grocery store where they bought lots of stroop wafels and black licorice!
On Tuesday we went to a little town in Germany called Monschau. The joke the whole time we were there was that we were in Disney World. Euro's even began to be called Disney Dollars:) here we are in a cute little tea place where dad had the best Apple Streudel and we sang a few lines from Sound of Music:)
Friday we went to Paris overnight. The first thing we did upon arriving was to find the most amazing Fallafel place ever!! it was SO good we tried to go back the next day(saturday) but since it was in the Jewish Quarter it was closed. Glad we got it when we did-yummy!
Saturday we walked from the Louvre to the Arch de Triomphe-which has become a kind of tradition for when we go to Paris(isn't it nice to have traditions in Paris!!) Here are Mom and I on top of the Arch with the Eiffel tower in the back.

We also found this amazing cafe- thanks to the rick steeves book that Emi had given us- thanks Emi! We sat there for a while and enjoyed everything from our Croque monsieur's to our amazing ice cream desserts!
We finished off the trip with a day into brussels to get those last minute treats-waffles, frites, chocolates-yummy! here I am outside my apartment.
And now they have all left and my apartment is too quite so it is waiting for the next visitors-any takers??!!
